There seem to be plentiful options for text chat servers, so I’m curious for those that self-host their own, what their preferences & experiences have been with them.

Also those mentioned in the title were just a few examples, if you run something else, e.g. Revolt or Mattermost or something else less popular, would be interested in reading about it!

      Correct me if I’m wrong, but the app only works with their hosted version, and I assume the selfhosted version doesn’t let you join different instances with the same account, right?

      Basically, there’s no point in going to something I won’t be able to convince my friends to be on.

        AFAIK, It has a Discord bridge. So friends using discord will be able to interact with you on your server. You can selfhost, accounts aren’t federated (like Lemmy), posts aren’t federated on other servers (unlike Lemmy).
